Just a suggestion.

We find a day, and Cichlid helps us take nice photos of our watches. We pay a sum and this goes to charity. Of course it may be inconvenient to Cichlid so I think it's also fair for him to charge a fee to cover his transport or whatever.
I'd love for him to take pics of my watches.

any takers?

not your hotdog as well? :eek:

are these replicas replicating the movements as well? if not, opening up the case back or having a display caseback should be able to tell by one look

for that picture in question, i think it's how dull the dial looks under sunlight, that made people look closer

top quality replica watches already have cloned movements. not going to post the link as I only support genuine products.

An average Joe who knows a little bit on gen & fakes will not use a magnifying glass on a stranger's Rolex watch.Real and fakes looked too similar at 1m distance these days ..To me the best way to tell is still to open up and see the movement :s13:

I have heard of 'experts' claiming they knew the difference between 316L and 904L steel color/polish and can tell a gen/fake upon touching and seeing it...not sure these are BS or what but that's an amazing ability if its true.

Fonts may be the same, but 904L steel & gen Rolex movement is the key to telling apart real & fakes IMO...

Happy flaming and trolling each other. Back to lurking mode:)

top quality rolex replica claim to use 904L s/steel. again NOT posting link as I don't endorse fakes.

Sadly accurate watch for Wednesday..

Looks like Uncle TT01 favourite watch... but its 2264 instead.

Not going to repeat TT01 detailed review on the exterior, but Cal 1538 is a workhorse, 15 yrs & running.
Low power indicator is by beating every 4sec, battery change $50 a pop @ Swatch, who recommends changing every 18 mths regardless (so that they can make more money off you ;))
Looks like the patina is developing nicely... this one is a keeper.

:lick: :love: :D :s12:

have to ask the more affluent dai kors here, but popular sports models like the sub/sub-date/new Daytona with ceramic bezel very little to no discount. full gold rolex day-date maybe can swing a max of 25%??
